They all must be erased from the American experience, and made to serve as a warning, to future attempts to go woke to push the Communist agenda.
It's time American Basketball be rebuilt that doesn't shove Ghetto trash down the American psyche as role models for our Children to aspire to be like. It's no accident, the Mayors in Liberal cities, build Basketball court to lure the POC youth, and allow Violent gang recruits at or near the same facility.
It all started a long time ago when Larry Bird scorched the Pistons in game 7 of the ECF in 1987, playing all 48 minutes (no rest), with 37 points (54% FG percentage with 50% from three point land), 9 rebounds, and 9 assists.
Dennis Rodman told the press that if Bird were black, he'd be just another player and Isiah Thomas concurred.
Since that day, it's always been about whites not deserving their spot on the court.
So sure, Bird lacks the lateral quickness of one-on-one defenders like Dennis Rodman, Michael Cooper, and Sid Moncrief, but that doesn't make him an overrated player esp when he does everything else well.
I was 8 years old at the time and saw how much punishment he took, esp against the dirtbags which were the Pistons.
It bums me out that I'll never be able to take my son to another Hawks game. Got this today as they were trying to pitch me tix again.
Felt bad because I've worked with this sales guy in the past, so I left it pretty generic. But letting them know to take politics outta sports. Those overpaid ballers checks are gonna start shrinking.
Poor guy is gonna have a hard time meeting his quota.
I'm from Boston, so being a Bird and Celts fan is kinda normal.
Today, if that 'Bad Boys' Piston team were playing, many of their players (not just Rodman and Laimbeer) would have fouled out by simply having any contact on LeBron.
Today's primadonnas don't know how easy they have it.
I’m not sure if ratings are being tracked properly any longer. I don’t know a single person under 30 who has cable. Everyone watches sports on their phones. Gambling on sports is actually up, so doesn’t make sense ratings would be low. Who gambles in a game and doesn’t watch?!? Atleast the last 10 minutes!
Replays sure. The size of the average American household TV didn't get to 50"+ to watch American Idol. Ratings are down, plain and simple. While nationwide gambling just became legal, it's a minority of the viewers. Most logical/smart people don't make a gamble on something they simply have zero control over and could be rigged or players throw a game.
The NBA game sucks now. When you see a giant man flop when a Muggsy Bogues size player touches him, I change the fucking channel. And I get that 3 points is better than 2, but Steph Curry has fucked the game up. It's just a 3 point contest at this point and unwatchable.
The icing on this shit cake is the BLM bullshit and SJW crap. There are other outlets where people can seek that shit out. We watch the NBA and other sports for entertainment, no politics. The NBA is the biggest culprit in this realm even though the kneeling shit started in the NFL. Even the worst player on a roster in the NBA is paid massive amounts of money. It's not like football where you might only get something like $500k. NBA is shit.
Forgot to hit on this. No, it's actually not. It's just being tracked now because it's legal. There's also no quality metric as of now to track its historic popularity. Bookies don't post their information online for an illegal activity. So we have no clue if gambling activity is up or down.
